For months every morning I fire up my pc I kept getting error messages. It
would freeze.....previews not work....attachments not there....I would fill
out the pop up window to be sent to Microsoft......it got worse and
worse....used to be a simple restart or stop the process and it would clear
up......well it got to the point I had to do something and I saw where people
were deleteing their profiles and then openeing Outlook and it would create a
new profile......I delete the profile.....Now the shortcut to Outlook does
nothing when trying to open.....I double click on
Outlook.exe.....nothing....the Mail icon in the control panel will not
open......

PC is Vista business......

What do I do now?

Click to expand...

Have you tried a repair install from Control Panel's Programs category?
 
I found this to work....

Run 'regedit'>

HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|
Microsoft|Windows NT|CurrentVersion|
Windows Messaging Subsystem|Deleted Profiles

There should be one called "Outlook".
Delete this and go back into Control panel|Mail and 'Outlook' should reappear.

Got it back and the same error messages. I will now make a new profile and
make sure it works and get rid of "Outlook"
